Where Were You October 4, 1973?-- Part 3

The next three songs all featured groups by the name brothers.

RAMBLIN' MAN-- ALLMAN BROTHERS--
THAT LADY-- ISLEY BROTHERS--
CHINA GROVE-- DOOBIE BROTHERS-- (Very hard to wrong with these three songs. Three of my favorites.)

YES WE CAN CAN-- POINTER SISTERS-- Now, sisters

LOVES ME LIKE A ROCK-- PAUL SIMON-- sat at #2 this week (putting a little gospel in the mix)
ALL I KNOW-- ART GARFUNKEL-- Art solo. Another brilliant composition from the great Jimmy Webb.

WE'RE AN AMERICAN BAND-- GRAND FUNK-- the Pride of Flint, Michigan, about as American as you can get. Title track from their newest release. (There were two distinct GFRs; the earlier "I'm Your Captain" group and this one. I liked both.
LET'S GET IT ON-- MARVIN GAYE-- The one, the only, the late great with the number one song in Chicago this date. (Always reminds me of that "King of Queens" episode.

Break songs:

LET ME IN-- OSMOND BROTHERS. Hard to escape the Osmonds. Donny and Marie both had solo albums. However, there were other brothers in the charts. (Played before the three straight brother bands.)

HALF BREED-- CHER

Great Memories. Three Weeks from Now, Rock and Roll Roots CD Vol. 11 is Released. --RoadDog
